I'm afraid I can't get the link to the South African Archives to work. ???

Try reducing the size of the address and follow through from there:  It seems that it was Rutti's search which expired.

My apologies I was posting and got called away - the long way is....
Click on search on the left hand side of the link
http://www.national.archives.gov.za/index.htm
Then Click on RSA in the middle of the list and then this will take you to the search site. This covers all the databases available in NAAIRS.
Hope this is better!!
